Hamed Khorsand has given his Hold rating due to a combination of factors influencing Iridium Communications’ current financial situation. The company’s recent quarterly results were heavily reliant on engineering revenue, which overshadowed the growth in their preferred service revenue metric. This trend has persisted for two consecutive quarters, indicating a potential challenge in achieving expected service revenue growth.
Additionally, the competitive pressure from Starlink, as broadband subscribers are switching their primary satellite broadband service provider, poses a risk to Iridium’s market position. Khorsand maintains a price target of $25, reflecting a belief that this is a fair valuation while the company works towards achieving sustainable growth and reducing its debt burden. Until these objectives are met, a Hold rating is deemed appropriate.
In another report released on July 25, TR | OpenAI – 4o also downgraded the stock to a Hold with a $28.00 price target.
